Ways to pay less

  • Homeowners: claim the Arkansas homestead property tax credit. The state homestead property tax credit reduces the real property taxes assessed on the homestead of each property owner. Homeowners must apply for the credit with the county assessor's office. How: Apply with the county Assessor's office.
  • Homeowners 65+ or disabled: freeze your assessed value. If you qualify for the homestead credit and are 65 or older or disabled, the taxable assessed value of your home can be frozen at its value at the next assessment date after you turn 65 or become disabled. Your tax can still change if millage rates change. How: Apply for the freeze with the county assessor's office.
